Abstract: A medication assistance device includes a storing member, medicine dispenser, discharge/transport mechanism, pack information reader, pack information management system (PIMS), storing detector, and controller. The storing member stores medicine packs. The medicine dispenser arranges a medicine pack in a position. The discharge/transport mechanism discharges the medicine pack from the storing member to transport to a position of the medicine dispenser. The pack information reader in the discharge/transport mechanism reads medication associated information (MAI) attached to the storing member and/or medicine pack. The PIMS manages the MAI of the medicine pack. The storing detector detects attachment or detachment of the storing member to a device main body. The controller informs the PIMS and causes the pack information reader to read the MAI of the storing member based on a detection signal from the storing detector when the storing member is mounted in the device main body.

Abstract: The bathtub device of the present invention includes a water discharge part (8) provided on a bathtub main body, a circulation channel (4), a circulation pump (6) provided on the circulation channel, a temperature modification part (7), a sensing unit (22) for detecting a temperature of hot water in the bathtub main body, and a controller (16) for controlling the temperature of hot water, where the controller performs a water discharge temperature adjustment mode in which the temperature of hot water discharged from the water discharge part is reduced to within the predetermined temperature range, when the temperature is higher than an upper limit temperature of a predetermined temperature range, or a water discharge temperature adjustment mode in which the temperature of hot water is increased to within the predetermined temperature range, when the temperature is lower than a lower limit temperature of the predetermined temperature range.

Abstract: A lens with an adjustable surface profile can include an actuatable layer, an optical layer, and at least one actuator. The optical layer can include a deformable polymer, and the actuatable layer can have a surface profile that is configured to be adjustable using the at least one actuator. The optical layer, meanwhile, can be configured to deform when the at least one actuator actuates the actuatable layer.

Abstract: An augmented reality apparatus includes a plurality of transmission lines, plural signal-generating circuits, at least one additional transmission line, at least one signal-processing circuit, a multiplexer having a plurality of inputs and at least one output, a plurality of matching networks, and an additional matching network coupling the additional transmission line to the output of the multiplexer. Example AR/VR devices include a camera configured to receive light from the external environment of the device and to provide a camera signal. The camera may include a surface variable lens including a support layer, an optical layer, a membrane layer, and an actuator. A computer-implemented method for anatomical electromyography test design includes identifying a wearable device having a frame including a plurality of electrodes, and calibrating the plurality of electrodes.

Abstract: A magnetic recording medium includes a non-magnetic substrate; a soft magnetic layer; a first seed layer; a second seed layer; an underlayer; and a perpendicular magnetic recording layer. The soft magnetic layer, the first seed layer, the second seed layer, the underlayer and the perpendicular magnetic recording layer are disposed on the non-magnetic substrate in this order. The first seed layer includes MoS2, hexagonal-BN, WS2, WSe2 or graphite. The second seed layer includes AlN having a hexagonal wurtzite type crystal structure. The underlayer includes Ru.

Abstract: Refrigerator (100) includes RFID tag (21) in which an appliance information is stored, product label (23) that indicates the appliance information, and a plurality of parts that configure refrigerator (100). In addition, product label (23) and RFID tag (21) are disposed on the same part among the plurality of parts. In this way, refrigerator (100) is provided, in which product label (23) and RFID tag (21) for identifying the individual home appliance are centrally managed and a mismatch between the appliance information items is prevented in advance.

Abstract: A refrigerator includes refrigerator body having a plurality of storage rooms, a plurality of doors that open and close the plurality of storage rooms, and RFID tag that performs proximity communication. In addition, RFID tag is provided on the uppermost door among a plurality of doors. In this way, a specific communication failure of refrigerator or dirt on mobile terminal which easily occurs due to the spilling of water or dirt at the time of taking food in and out of the refrigerator can be prevented, and thus, it is possible to provide refrigerator having a high reliability.
